Huh? Who should be confronting what big spearman? Could you please be a little more specific? I looked at the episode but wasn't able to find that part...

Sorry. It's in the beginning when Usagi and Leonardo are back-to-back fighting. Usagi kicks a couple of guys of of him and then gets into a fight with an assassin wielding a big, spiky sword (i think....but as I remember, it isn't a spear). The part comes where he leaps at him as in an anime...going left to right, with the yellow "flashy" background behind him, and then they connect on a red screen while they're both silhouettes. The part where Usagi's leaping is teh one I want.

And if you still can't understnad, I'll rewatch the episode and try to give you a more exact moment.

With BSPlayer ( www.bsplayer.org ) you can take screencaps easily: you only need to press the "p" key when you want one.

As for the DVDs: even if the episodes were recorded from TV and you didn't pay anything to get them, it's always nice to buy a product that will reward the creators of the show, in this case, the DVD.

I hope you meant this scene:

miyamoto: the DVD hasn't been released yet. When it does you'll probably know, since there are many TMNT fans in the Dojo.

Well said!!
I agree, but also because I'm a TMNT fan. I don't have cable or sat., and with the mountains in the area, I only get 1 tv station, and it isn't the Fox Box station. So a friend tapes them on VHS, I get to see them that way.
When the DVDs come out, I buy them. They also have a few short extras on them, like interviews with Peter Laird, voice actors, and such.

Mirage posted the snyopsis for the Season 3 episodes, and I think I've figured out which episode is going to have a certain ninja turtle visiting Usagi's world.

alien quadrilogy

Of course, the word they should have used was "tetrology". Stupid word-making-up marketing dinks. <shakes fist roughly in direction of Hollywood>

Yes yes yes yes yes!!!!! Got it! Thanks so much, ziritrion-san.

spoilersw ahead...
Just watched "Big Brawl" part 3. Good stuff. Usagi once again stole the show just by his presence, and Gen got a little more screen-time this time around. Less fight scenes than part two (at first), but they make up for it by ending the episode with two big ones: Mikey vs. Raph and Usagi & Don vs. the assassins. Usagi's dry humor comes in here again, as well as his cultural differences ("Vulcan mind-meld?"), and for once one of the Turtles doesn't trust him (Don). As well he shouldn't...after all, last thing he knew, Usagi was the only one with Leo at the time of his dequalification...but the episode does finally make them friends and hopefully not in a cliched way. Can't wait for number 4!

And now, for those of us who enjoyed the tv toon enough to buy the dvd, can! (Or who missed it but really wanted the dvd, too.)
The Big Brawl episodes are on DVD. It's #13 in the dvd series, all 4 episodes on one.

There is a fun interview with Stan and Peter on it. For anyone who's a long time fan of both series/comics, been to Stan's comic convention panels, there's nothing earth shatteringly new in there. But it's still really great to see Peter and Stan together in an interview. I think they did a really nice job of presenting the UY comics and Stan's quality of art and storytelling in the interview, which might lead to more TMNT fans investigating the world of UY.
